In the field of display coating equipment, the granite base, as a core basic component, plays a crucial role in the stability, accuracy and service life of the equipment. China and Europe and America each have their own characteristics in the application and technological development of granite bases. This article will conduct a comparative analysis from multiple dimensions to provide a comprehensive reference for industry practitioners and followers.
I. Comparison of Technical Processes: Each has its own merits
Europe and America started earlier in the field of granite base processing. Long-term accumulation has given them an advantage in high-precision processing techniques. For instance, German enterprises have adopted nanoscale grinding technology, which can control the surface roughness of granite within Ra≤0.1μm and achieve a flatness of ±0.5μm/m, making it suitable for optical coating equipment with extremely high precision requirements. Some manufacturers in the United States are good at composite processing technology, combining granite with special metal materials to enhance the mechanical properties of the base.
In recent years, China has been catching up rapidly in technology, especially in large-scale production processes and customized processing. Domestic enterprises can efficiently complete the processing of complex-shaped granite bases by using their independently developed five-axis linkage machining centers. Moreover, through the big data quality monitoring system, the product qualification rate can be increased to over 98%. By integrating the introduction of international advanced equipment with independent innovation, ZHHIMG® has achieved an annual production capacity of over 10,000 granite bases while ensuring high precision, meeting the large-scale demands of both domestic and international markets.
Second, cost and cost performance: Domestic products have significant advantages
Due to the large investment in technological research and development and high labor costs, the prices of granite bases in Europe and America are generally high. Take the high-precision granite base of the same specification (1500mm×1000mm×200mm) as an example. The price of products from Europe and America is usually between 30,000 and 50,000 US dollars, while the price of similar products in China is only 20,000 to 40,000 RMB, which has a significant cost advantage.
In terms of cost performance, products from our country have performed outstandingly. Domestic enterprises have significantly reduced costs by optimizing supply chain management, achieving integrated production from the mining of granite raw materials to the processing of finished products. At the same time, under the premise of ensuring the basic performance (such as a density of 3100kg/m³ and a compressive strength of ≥200MPa), the competitiveness of the product is enhanced through technological innovation, making it more suitable for cost-sensitive small and medium-sized enterprises and large-scale procurement scenarios.
Iii. Market Application Differences: Demand-oriented determines characteristics
European and American granite bases are mainly applied in high-end customized equipment, such as luxury display cabinet coating equipment and aerospace precision component coating lines, etc. These fields have extremely high requirements for the extreme environmental adaptability and ultra-precision stability of the bases. For instance, in a certain high-end watch dial coating equipment in Switzerland, the European and American granite base used needs to pass strict anti-electromagnetic interference tests and high and low temperature cycling tests.
Granite bases in our country are widely used in mass consumer display coating equipment due to their high cost performance, such as mobile phone casing coating lines and furniture surface coating equipment. Meanwhile, in emerging fields such as the market for coating equipment for new energy vehicle battery casings, domestic products have also rapidly penetrated. With rapid response and customized services, they meet the diverse needs of customers.
Iv. Future Development Trends
Europe and the United States will continue to focus on the research and development of cutting-edge technologies, explore the composite application of granite and new materials, and further enhance the performance of the base. On the basis of consolidating its existing advantages, China has increased investment in research and development, promoted the advancement of industries towards high-end, strengthened alignment with international standards, and enhanced its competitiveness in the global high-end market. In the process of technical exchanges and market competition, both sides are expected to jointly promote the innovative development of granite bases in the field of display coating equipment.
Whether choosing granite base products from China or Europe and America, enterprises should make a comprehensive consideration based on their own equipment requirements, budgets and application scenarios.
